Next I took a tennis racket
And a ball, but didn't whack it.
The racket's length was just 9 balls.
That is true; it is not false.

Measuring things is not so hard.
You don't need inches or a yard.
To tell how long or how short —
Use any tool, and be a sport!

Max's Challenge

Measure objects in your classroom — a desk, a book, the chalkboard — but DON'T use a ruler. Use your hands, feet, blocks, paper, pencils, or just about anything to measure the objects. Then share what you discover with Ruthie and me.
